Journal ArticleDOI

Corrosion of high purity Mg, Mg2Zn0.2Mn, ZE41 and AZ91 in Hank’s solution at 37 °C

TL;DR: In this paper, the CO2 partial pressure required to maintain a synthetic body fluid (SBF) at a constant pH, based on the initial bicarbonate concentration, was evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

CO2 Thermosiphon for Competitive Geothermal Power Generation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that a CO2-based power plant has net electricity production comparable to the traditional approach, but with a much simpler design, and demonstrates the comparative efficacy of CO2 as a heat extraction and working fluid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electricity generation using a carbon-dioxide thermosiphon

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the wellbore frictional pressure losses are the dominant factor in CO 2 -based EGS and that CO 2 is less effective at energy extraction than water under conditions similar to past EGS trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of the hydrogen fugacity during electrolytic charging of steel

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the determination of the hydrogen fugacity during electrolytic charging, and found that the fugacity in the pH 12.6 0.1 m NaOH solution was higher than the pH 2 0 m Na2SO4 solution, attributed to differences in the hydrogen evolution reaction, the surface state and the true surface area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rheology and microstructure of aqueous suspensions of nanocrystalline cellulose rods

TL;DR: An extended range of conditions reveals regions where the suspension is a viscous fluid and viscoelastic soft solid, as well as regions of instability that are suggested to arise when there is sufficient salt to reduce the electrical double layer but insufficient NCC to form a load bearing network.
